Is this more like a directory name change if so all you need is
RewriteRule ^/techblog(.*)$ /technology-blog$1 [R=301,L]
R is the browser return code and also forces the users browser to refresh. It
is also possible to make this transfer internally without a response to the
users browser but sending the return code does tell the browser to update its
bookmarks.

Subject: help with rewrites - changing the base path
i am trying to change the base path of a directory to rewrite to a new
location, there are no files in the location, so it is just a
cosmetic/seo change.
i have some rewrites that are put in place by my hosting provider, and
im having some difficulty getting the rewrite to work:
here is my .htaccess file:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /techblog/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#RewriteRule ^/techblog /technology-blog [L]
RewriteRule . /techblog/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
